My sincere condolences to the L'Esperance family. I was Public Relations director at Beaumont Hospital when the quints were born, and it was quite a big media event. Our office took calls from media all over the world because of the unique nature of this particular event
. Michele was cool, calm and collected as she fielded questions from an auditorium full of reporters/cameras, etc. I thought of her often. Godspeed, Michele.

I recently found out about the passing of Michele. I knew Michele during her early teenage years in Harrison Township. Her brother (Michael) and myself were close friends for many years. My sincere condolences for her children and husband. Rest in peace. Barry Edwards

To the family of Michele,
I had the pleasure of taking care of Michele during her hospital stays. She was one of my dearest patients. We had many long conversations during the night. I am so sorry for your loss. She was truly a genuine person who cared very deeply for her husband, family and those around her. May she rest in peace.

Ray and Family,

My prayers are with you. I worked with Michele at Turning Point and considered her a friend as well. I moved to Florida and though we lost touch, I have fond fun memories, of a vibrant, beautiful person.

Dear Ray & Family, I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Marlene is a friend of mine from St. Louis but Michele was my childhood friend. We were the two "Michele" terrors in the subdivision. I have fond memories of the sleep-overs and the many antics we subjected the neighborhood to! I will miss my friend.

Dear Ray and Family,
I worked with Michele many years at Turning Point. I was her intern and she trained me very well. In fact she trained me so well, I am still doing victim work today. I enjoyed working with Michele and we shared a LOT about our families. We were both Pregnant at the same time. IT was great. To know her IS to LOVE her. I will dearly miss my friend-

Ray and Family,
I send you my thoughts and prayers.
Words right now cannot ease the pain of your loss. Michelle was not only beautiful on the outside she was beautiful inside. She loved you and the kids beyond words and has left that love for you to share with each other in her absence.
Remember Michelle in the glory of the sunset and the warmth of the sun every morning. She is that bright star in the night, still as beautiful watching down on you.
We send you not only our thoughts and prayers but our love to help you though this time of loss.
Our Sympathies

As a child, Michele was my idol. She was the most gorgeous woman I ever knew, and did she have style . . . I remember she wore hot pants and a long fall to her high school graduation! I joyfully attended her fashion shows and beauty pageants. Oh, the mighty Michele.

As an adult, Michele and I became friends. She was hilarious and profane. She was caustic, sharp and just a blast to hang out with.

As a cousin, Michele was the tops. She was always there for her family, and she encouraged everyone to reach as high as they could.

My deepest condolences to Ray and all of the kids. I cannot imagine the sadness you are feeling. Michele loved you all so much. You were her world.

Michele is already deeply missed. She will never be forgotten.

Much love, Gretchen
